Hi there,
I am trying to learn gtk and I have a hard time to understand signals.
This comes from helloworld in tutorial

g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT (window), "delete_event",
                  G_CALLBACK (delete_event), NULL);
g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT (window), "destroy",
                  G_CALLBACK (destroy), NULL);


Question: How does gtk know what functions it should call? I mean for me it basically says: call this or this. Is it about the arguments that are declared in callback functions? This is a little bit confusing because no arguments are indicated in those connections.

Thanks for any help,

The best way to learn is to google for gobject. A lot of detail on gobject is here: http://www.le-hacker.org/papers/gobject/ There's also previous posts on the gtk lists on tutorials being written. There's also: http://www.gtk.org/tutorial/

It will take a long time to get the hang of it, but it's
much easier after you do.
